Been reading up quite a bit on past posts, watching videos and the
like. A friend and I decided this would be a fun little project.
Goals are 10-20 miles, hopefully with about 45-50mph top speed.
I have the El Ninja book on the way, I figure it will be a good
reference even though I don't think we'll be following it to a T.
We are starting to look at donor bikes, since that seems to dictate a
lot of what's possible. I saw a recommendation for using a 1L bike
that has an aluminum frame. There just so happens to be one for sale
in my area with a motor that sounds like its on the way out.
What do you guys think? 1993 CBR 1000F

Some more on our current directions..
- probably 48 volts, Perm 132 motor?
- if realistic, I'd like to use the Thunder Sky LiFEO4 packs,
despite the higher cost
Comments?
Thanks, I'll continue my research..
